Sounds good

The Datsun 1200 struts are already coilovers with a Ford 4.5 inch pattern (same as Mustang/Falcon). If you are thinking of 5-lug wheels, maybe you can use the Ford 5-on-4.5 discs which bolt onto some Nissan struts (see Brake Swaps#Ford), although many Nissans incuding S14 240SX uses the same bolt pattern

Using the 1200 struts mean lighter weight=faster performance. You can also convert them to adjustable spring height or convert them to small-diameter coils (useful if you will be fitting extra-wide front wheels)

Hello guys, I finally decide to start with my Rotary project. I know is going to take me some time as I have to restore the car at the same car.

Will be asking couple of question about some modifications I want to do like

Need to convert my front strusts to coilover, bigger brakes with a Ford 4 1/2 pattern


The beginning of the car a complete factory 1200,

I started by removing the factory A12 to make room for the Mazda 13B Turbo.

It will be injected using a Microtech LT10x4, a complete ProJay intake set up with 8 1600 injectors.

Front suspension will come from the guys at MadDat and their 13B kit, also using their adjustable Lowe control arm. Struts will be modify and use the T3 coilover system and their camber plate. The front brake has become an issue, this is my hurdle as of today!

The rear end will also be swap to a Ford 8.8, will eliminate the c-clip and change the end plata to a Big Ford. Axel will come from Strange Engineering and a set of Wilwood brakes to be able to keep the emergency brake. The wheels are RC Components 15x10 single beadlock using Mickey Thompson 26x12 tires
